Pictures

Thought I would post some pics of what is going on. Since it takes forever to load pics on blogger, there won't be that many. Enjoy!


Yep, here I am, hairless...Let me tell you a little about this eventful night. We went to my in-laws house to take a few family pictures. We then settle down for a yummy steak dinner. Izzy LOVES my hair and pulls it whenever she can get a great handful. So, she gave my hair a good yank and a huge chunk of hair came out. It was traumatic to see it, it really was!! So, I gave my hair a good tug just to make sure it was really happening and another huge clump came out. It was too traumatic to see it so that night I asked Travis to give me a hair cut. Travis was SO sweet about it. He got right to work and gave me the most memorable haircut of my life. Tears ran down my face as I said good-bye to my hair that I LOVE. The comments I heard after my haircut...
1. Travis said, "You look SEXY!" (and he really meant it)
2. Travis said, "I am glad you did this, you have been conservative for so long that it's nice to see you do something wild! It's a turn on!"
3. Landon said, "Mom, you look like a Dada!"
4. Landon also said, "Mom you look beautiful!"

So far I haven't minded being bald like I thought. It certainly is colder. I feel a breeze and it send chills down my spine. When I lay my head on my pillow, it's very scratchy. I have found that I can get the biggest laugh from Izzy when I rub my head on her belly. There are definite benefits. Losing my hair has not been as horrible as I thought!

Travis had to add a little humor to the situation...
Family picture taken hours before the haircut!
My new wig! I love it!

Didn't like these others! But they were fun to try on!

I know that every time I post I tell you how amazing you are but....YOU ARE AMAZING! I love the shoulder length hair-do. I can't believe how big LT is getting, your kids are super cute.

Love you!!

I love your wig. The last picture looks like you are 19, too funny.

I can't believe how fast you started losing hair. Didn't I just see you on Monday? You are still beautiful and I just cracked up at the comments from Travis and LT.

Me, Myself and I said...

You're beautiful no matter what. I like the wigs! LT's comment "you look like Daddy" made me laugh. Kids are so sweet and innocent and cute.

You are amazing!
You have so much strength...
And I have to agree with Travis, you looks sexy :)

Hang in there girl! I think of you and your family often.

I saw part of this post, but maybe didn't wait for it all to load.

You are gorgeous with or without hair!

Loved the mohawk look. Too bad it wouldn't have lasted.

You hang in there. You'll be whole again soon. Thanks for sharing your experience.
